294: Tips through Police Career Stages: Learning, Adapting, Health, Leadership, w/ Lt. David Smit...

Part 2!  In this engaging conversation, Eric and Lieutenant David Smith explore the themes of leadership, wellness, and personal growth through stages of a police career. They discuss the importance of self-reflection, the challenges faced by applicants and rookies, and the significance of understanding one's identity and purpose in the profession. The dialogue emphasizes the need for continuous learning, the impact of burnout, and the necessity of knowing one's 'why' in both personal and professional realms.   Takeaways • The importance of self-reflection in personal growth. • Understanding your 'why' is crucial for a fulfilling career. • Burnout is a common challenge in law enforcement. • Continuous learning is essential for career development. • Your identity should not solely be tied to your job. • Peer support can be a valuable resource for officers. • Setting up your career for success involves planning for the future. • Recognizing the impact of the job on personal life is vital. • Diversity in experiences can enhance your career. • Values often extend beyond the job itself. - Lieutenant David Smith began his law enforcement career in 2011.
